Ant has $15.00 that she can spend on snacks for a party. Tortilla chips cost $3.50 per bag and jars of cheese dips cost $2.50 per jar. Define variables and write a linear inequality that describes how many bags of tortillas chips and jars of cheese dip that ant can buy.

Answer:

y= (30-5x) /7

Step-by-step explanation:

We can make linear inequality if we have 2 variables to compare. Let's put y= number of tortilla chips while x= jars of cheese dips. Tortilla chips(y) cost $3.50 per bag while jars of cheese dips(x) cost $2.50 per jar. If total money Ant has is $15, the equation will be:

y * $3.50 + x* $2.50 = $15

3.5y= 15- 2.5x

7y= 30- 5x

y= (30-5x) /7
